that 33-year-old christopher jordan was suspected of shooting three police officers in river side county. he was already wanted on charges of killing a young irvine couple last weekend. massive man hunt now stretches across southern california and parts of nevada, arizona, and mexico. the big bear ski resort area in san bernardino county is under emergency lock down after investigators found his burned up truck on a forest road. the rugged terrain there could provide him cover in the area. 125 officers have been brought in to look for him. dorner is considered extremely dangerous with military and survival training. >> we want to have fresh people out there in the field, on the ground as and as i said we'll have plenty of law enforcement in patrol cars all throughout the area. >> now there are extra police patrols this morning at schools and ski resorts imparticular.

dorner is suspected of killing an irvine man and his fiance the daughter of a retired los angeles police captain who handled dorners appeal after getting fired from the department in 2009. he's also atuesdayed of first wounding an officer and killing a riverside officer and seriously wounding his partner. dorner has escaped capture for days now. he may be taking advantage of the elements. coming up a live report from los angeles police headquarters on how the weather could play a major factor in whether police could track him down. happening right now it's already snowing on the east coast as a dangerous storm is moving into the area. this is a live picture of central park in new york. snow is already falling there. two to three feet of snow is expected in several states. many schools in massachusetts have been canceled today. classes canceled and people are being urged to take the deoff of work -- take the day off

work and stay at home if they can. this is what it looked like in la guardia where many passengers are stranded. the advisory boards are it will up with flight cancellations. in fact more than 3,000 flights have already been canceled nation-wide and more are expected throughout the day. now the storm also bringing cancellations for passengers here in the bay area. ktvu channel 2 reporter cara liu is out at sfo where she has been talking to people that have been stranded since 4:30 this morning. >> reporter: a few additional cancellations to tell you about. traffic is starting to pick up just a little bit. we've been in contact with the duty manager here all morning long. there have been changes at least every hour. this is terminal two where american and virgin are located. a number of cancellations here primarily to and from new york and boston. philly is also seeing delays. we talked with a number of travelers that are trying to get to the northeast. many are taking preventive

measures. andrew jones has been trying to get to jfk. he's had two different flights canceled. now he is flying into d.c. and planning to drive to new york. >> bit of chaos. but owe know, it's one week i'm traveling in a whole month and it happens to hit. it will be manic on the planes. >> reporter: we've been checking with all three bay area airports all morning long for you. sfo is updating their number of cancellations to 57 right now. a vast majority are departures. right now san jose and oakland are not reporting any issues but officials tell us if you are flying today, it's a good idea to check with your airline even if you are not traveling to the northeast because there could be secondary delays in other parts of the country. live in sfo i'm cara liu. >> that is good advise. time now 6:37. the roads are wet in some spots. sal, owe are watching bridges too. >> that is right we have a new

crash that just happened on the bay bridge westbound. it is west of treasure island. you can see it here. this is involving a motorcyclist down in the lanes. westbound. that is why it's pretty dangerous when it's slippery conditions to be on a bike in these days. bridge crews have arrived on the scene. at least one of the lanes is blocked there. i can see one lane. i want to take a look at the incline section. the traffic is now at a standstill on the bridge. westbound into san francisco. this will be a major problem. it's also going to back up things at the toll plaza because right now take a good look at it. it's not that crowded. they will slow the metering lights down. probably 10-15 minutes from now we will come back to this and it will be jammed. you might want to think about this and head into the city. in a way use bart and the san mateo bridge. this is a big problem for the bay bridge. let's move along to steve now.

>> hold on sal. >> steve. >> go ahead. >> and now meteorologist steve paulson. brandon in pacifica said 36. the coldest air comes in around the noon hour. the noon hour. but it's already rather cold. santa rosa 32. now there is a lot of 30s and 40s. a little bit more cloud cover to the south. our system is moving out of the area. you can see the low taking parallel to the coast. not a bad okay system for this kind of pattern. unfortunately this looks like it for awhile. the five, seven, 15 day outlook are dry. there might be one system a week from sunday but i don't think it will do too much. everything will be east of us. oakland almost in there. san jose .08. san jose .07. generally a tenth of an inch. that is a kind of a pattern. things seem to be winding down up in the sierra. they could still get shower

activity. this is a big system. the good news it does not look like it will stall. it's moving up the carolina coast. there has been really heavy rain there. rain snow line lifts a little north. but i just got a nice tweet from scott saying informs in washington, d.c.. rain and snow mix will try to get out. for us maybe a little snow mix. snow level could be around 1500 to 2,000 feet. and things are really lighting up toward the santa clara valley. also down in monterey. it looks like things will be improving. 50s on the temps. not much of a difference here. cold tomorrow morning and windy. sunny and warmer weather takes us into next week. time now 6:40. one of california's biggest policeman hunts ever is still happening this morning. they are tracking former l.a. police officer christopher dorner accused of three revenge killings. reporter william live at parker

center. that is the l.a. police headquarters. william. >> reporter: the question is did christopher dorner get off big bear mountain? or is he caught up there in the snow. we don't know that. what we do know however his well trained he's well armed he's exnaval intelligence. exlapd. he knows how to get lost and not use his credit card or cell phone. here's the latest. heavy weather hitting big bear right now. the ski resort is basically in lock down. people are hold up in their houses pulling out their guns themselves. basically they have spent the last 18 hours 120 federal state and local officers looking for him on the ground. also with helicopters. no sign of this guy right now. so let me bring you up to speed on really what led to all this. it was 2007 he was still in a probationary period with lapd

and his supervisor a female officer said listen, i'm going to write you up, pull you from the field because you are not performing properly. you have poor judgment. it was about two weeks later that the with of them were called out to a scene and he claimed the female officer kicked a guy while he was handcuffed. internal fairs watched this investigation and found out that was untrue. that it was a lie. it was retribution for what he was saying and ever since he's held lapd responsible for ruining his reputation and now of course he's said that the killing will continue until the department apologizes which they say will not. dave back to you. >> live from los angeles. thank you. time now is 6:42. it has been a favorite for almost 30 years. the big change we are learning about this morning to an iconic san francisco diner. we are live in san pablo we

big trouble on the bay bridge. westbound motorcycle crash now blocking at least two lanes with the fire department and medics on the scene along with bridge crews. it does look like they've blocked more lanes since we first saw this. these are big delays on the bridge. the toll plaza is now becoming more crowded at the toll plaza. but it's not quite filled in. we are getting a little bit lucky because it's a friday. a lot of times by this time it's already filled in but it will soon. look at the bridge itself westbound. we don't want to lose the bridge. what i will do is take bart or leave the house early. go down to the san mateo bridge. if you are in marin county obviously if you are in upper east bay you might want to think about using richmond bridge to golden gate bridge instead of this. you don't want to be caught in this traffic. we'll follow this for you. here's a quick look at some of the top stories we are following for you right now at 6:46. former l.a. police officer accused of a
